3rd Xbox in works?

[mecha-gino]

Eeew RARE reviving Conker? They gonna mess it up even more, please leave it alone!

It needs a sequel and pretty damn good one too! Also the original needs to be on ported on PSN and Xbox Live!

honestly, I think they should just make 2 new systems. The Playstation and the Xbox. NOT PS4, or XBox 3. No numbers in the title at all.

Have them backards compatible all the way back to PS1 and Xbox. and instead of coming out with new systems every few years, just make a huge patch that will cost like $20 every few years that will allow for more graphic capability and so on.

I am tired of buying a new system as soon as it's cheap enough and finding out a new version is coming out the following 6 months.

Well that is what has been happening and what will be happening kind of. The X-box 720 or whatever it is isn't projected to come out until christmas 2013. And the X-box came out in 2005. That is 8 years of life which is long considering the average length is 6. In those eight years the X-box slim, Kinect and multiple changes to X-box live have occured. And the X-box really is not THAT expensive. Its still cheaper than the PS3. Lastly, there is no patch that would allow enhanced graphics. Only a phsical change to the console or develops using the full power of the console will allow it to be better. Look at Halo 3 and Halo Reach. Both came out on the same console but the developers new how to use the consoles power better with Reach.

They make a new system once every six or seven years. People forget that the 360 came out in 2005, I guess time fly by quicker then we thought ? I will wait until I get a new system since I did not get the normal Xbox until 2005 and had it until 2007. I had my 360 for four years and I will likely keep it since I still have my PS2.

Also calling it the PS4 seems likely since calling it The Playstation would cause confusing. If someone ask a game for The Playstation then they will ask "Which one?".

Dillon the only way you could upgrade the graphics on a system is if console makers implemented removalable GPUs (Graphics Processing Unit) and that's not likely because it could be kind of costly.

Just look at the prices of PC GPUs some are as high as $800

The first company to offer full 100% reverse compatible on all disc-titles and old core system buy banks (like turn in your XBOX for $50 credit towards an XBOX720) will RULE!

Looks like the 3rd Xbox will not have a disc drive. I'm starting to hate digital media.

[Berzerkgodzilla]

I hate that, skreeonk digital shit. I'd rather have a hard copy. Everyone should rant

[Hellspawn28]

I think people have became too lazy to walk up to a store and buy a copy. Hard copies forever!

[Berzerkgodzilla]

They'd be screwing over the people who don't have internet as well, which suprisingly I remember as being a high amount

[Tohosaurus]

I have certain doubts that it'll be a disc-less affair. First off, I think plenty of people still like HAVING a physical copy, especially since this screws those that don't actually use LIVE and such (which affects many of the youngest demographics of console owners). Secondly, then this means no one could watch a DVD/BRD or listen to a CD. They'd actually damage it's home media usability.

Could this happen in time? Oh yeah. Within the next year or whenever this comes out? Probably not.

[Hellspawn28]

Not having a disc takes away a lot of the fun of owning the product, I like having a collection. My guess is that stores like Gamestop and Best Buy are likely are going to go against it since a lot of people games from those stores.

[HeiseiGodzilla117]

I hope that's not true. I've been resisting mp3's since I was in middle-school. I don't want the same thing to happen to video games so soon. I love having hard copies. Especially when they come with neat little extras. Say it ain't so, Microsoft!

[NSZ]

Aw hell naw. No. Nononononono. N. O. Nu-uh. That's a horrible idea and they skreeonk know it.

I mean, what if something happens to the console? Like gets destroyed, or stolen, or skreeonk inevitably conks out? Wouldn't that mean, I mean besides buying a whole new console of course, you'd also have to re-buy all of your skreeonk games? Yeah, that won't make people foam at the mouth in rage at all, no sir.

[Berzerkgodzilla]

I wonder if microsoft has gotten any e-mails yet

If this is absolutely true, I'm gonna hope for a petition

[Hellspawn28]

I don't think it will happen. I still won't be surprise if this happen with music since more people seem to buy music of from Itunes instead.

Well THAT problem would at least probably be addressed by more content being saved online. They're already treading those waters with Cloud and the small space allotted to each profile account. But all of the issues with not having a disc drive (so you can't watch your physical DVDs, etc) remain far as I can tell.

update on the Xbox 720.

Anonymous source mentions that the third Xbox might be called "Durango" and it might be release sometime between Thanksgiving and Christmas for the 2013 Holiday season.

I don't believe it until it's official. I also think that Druango sounds like a terrible name in my opinion.

[Berzerkgodzilla]

My friend showed me pictures of a possible design, and I looked it up. This is what I got. (Picture included)

He also told me heard from a couple sources that the name will simply be "The Xbox"
